The woman who accused Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her when they were teenagers has resurfaced after speaking with Rolling Stone and writing a book.
During Christine Blasey Ford’s recent appearance on “The View,” co-host Sarah Haines pointed out that “even today some people remain skeptical of your story.”

The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway, who co-authored a book about Blasey Ford’s allegations against Kavanaugh, wrote a lengthy post on X detailing all the reasons to doubt the accusation. According to Hemingway, some of the reasons people still doubt Blasey Ford’s story include the lack of evidence that she had ever even met Kavanaugh and the fact that witnesses she named to back up her story contradicted her.
1. There Is No Evidence that Ford and Kavanaugh Ever Met
2. Leland Keyser Said She Did Not Have ‘Any Confidence’ in Her Friend’s Story
3. Friends Pressured Keyser to Change Her Story
4. All Alleged Witnesses Strongly Dispute the Claim
5. Ford’s Father Supported Kavanaugh’s… https://t.co/tEJxIbkhuE

Hemingway also pointed out that Blasey Ford could never say where the alleged sexual assault took place, how she arrived at that location, or how she got home. Blasey Ford also changed the date of the alleged assault by years after first telling her story.
One of the biggest issues for Blasey Ford was that the witnesses she named as being able to corroborate her allegations all said they had no recollection of such an event. Blasey Ford’s best friend at the time, Leland Keyser, would eventually come out and say in the 2019 book “The Education of Brett Kavanaugh: An Investigation,” by reporters Robin Pogebrin and Kate Kelly, that she didn’t believe Blasey Ford’s claims.
Keyser said “that she didn’t recall that get-together or any others like it.” Keyser also “challenged Ford’s accuracy,” the authors wrote. Keyser told them: “I don’t have any confidence in the story.”
Keyser also told the authors that she was pressured to support Ford’s story, and threatened for not doing so: “I was told behind the scenes that certain things could be spread about me if I didn’t comply.”

In Hemingway’s own book on the saga, titled “Justice on Trial: The Kavanaugh Confirmation and the Future of the Supreme Court,” she reveals that Keyser had “logistical and character-driving” issues with Blasey Ford’s story. Keyser told Hemingway and her co-author, Carrie Campbell Severino, that “It would be impossible for me to be the only girl at a get-together with three guys, have her leave, and then not figure out how she’s going to get home.”
Blasey Ford’s media tour is about selling her new book, “One Way Home,” about her allegations against Kavanaugh. In the book, she claims to have received death threats following her testimony. A Rolling Stone article about these alleged death threats fails to mention the death threats that Kavanaugh received in the wake of Blasey Ford’s allegations – and the very real attempt on his life by a man angry about the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade.
